This cutting-edge book and audio package brings the drumming of David Garibaldi and the music of Tower of Power to your practice room and provides an in-depth look at the concepts that David uses to create his futuristic, yet old-school, grooves.

Includes:

Eighty page book with detailed transcriptions by David of his drum performance in each of eight tunes from T.O.P's most recent album ‘Oakland Zone’ (Or Music), incisive commentary, photos, a biography,a suggested listening list and more.

A CD with all 8 tracks minus David's drums, allows you to ‘sit in’ with this legendary band. Each track provides ‘clicktrack’ count-in, followed by a complete ‘music minus drums’ stereo mix including the lead vocals and solos.

Two bonus DVD-ROMs with instrumental versions of these tracks in file formats that can be looped, slowed down using programs such as Acid and GarageBand and remixed using multi-track studio software such as ProTools, Cakewalk, or Nuendo for further exploration and study. Includes a ReadMe file and also a video tutorial with detailed instructions.

Musicroom.com is awesome! They sent out the book the next day!
Garibaldi's 'Code of funk' is a well presented trancription of T.O.P Grooves and play alongs to their album Oakland Zone. The two bonus DVD's are really helpful to. A good buy for the funky drummer wannabe!Anonymous
